The Spinning Wheel
The Spinning Wheel is the first book in the origin story of the The Grimm Star Saga.While most of the population of the Spinning Wheel, a Chapter colonization ship, sleeps in their cryo bays, Zellendine and Troylus go through the motions of their shift awake, keeping the ship going.

Second, some of the people in the next shift, waking up from their cryo bay for the hand off period on the ship, are stuck in deep, steady REM sleep. And third, while Troylus is on a starwalk to close the shields over the windows because a strange anomaly is detected in front of the ship, the anomaly... attacks.He doesn't have a better description for it. And he doesn't have any way to explain what he does in response to save Zellendine on the other side of the window, watching on in horror.Only one more period in cryo before they are scheduled to arrive on their long awaited new planet, but can they even survive until they are supposed to go to sleep again? And if they do, will they ever wake up?
Ruthless
Step through the mirror. Step through at your own peril. It was clear enough that Ed Calkins was murdered while delivering newspapers. Trudy, a poet, sharp-shooter, dominatrix, alcoholic, and auxiliary police officer is certain she knows who did it. She remembers pointing the pistol and pulling the trigger, but she doesn't remember why she shot her best friend. Is something supernatural haunting Munsonville? Or had something possessed her years ago when Eddie secretly won the lottery? In either case, he'd become a vampire, and she must face him again in a duel four days from now. In the meantime, Ed Calkins is bleeding to death and only has seven seconds to create a son for Melissa and John with the help of two others, who both live in his imaginary version of Tara in ancient Ireland. He must also ruthlessly battle agendas or myth and his own unruly imagination while time traveling recklessly through distant future and past. So step carefully through the mirror because you're only guaranteed to learn three things. - Ed Calkins is ruthless, - A pistol is no silver bullet in a limerick fight, - And if Ed Calkins asks you to marry him, he might not ask again.

Washaka
It was the edge of winter 2005 and I was casting about looking for a new story idea. I like to write in coffee shops and was sitting near a window scribbling in a notebook when an Indian man about my age came to my table and asked if I was a writer. I told him I was. He introduced himself as Leon Hale and asked if he could sit and tell me a story. We shook hands, and he began. Leon told me about a dream he has had for many years. It is always the same dream; full of rich detail, sounds, smells, and sights. In the dream, he is a young Lakota boy living in a tipi village in the early 1800s just as the huge westward migration of Europeans into Indian country was beginning. Leon said that sometimes when he wakes up and finds himself a grown man living in a trailer house, he is disoriented and confused. Within minutes, I knew I would write his story.Over the next year we recorded Leon's dream and I went to work writing the story, adding detail and, in essence, entering a new world. The relationship between Little Chief and a white boy he named Mato Ska took shape and came alive.

Ithaca Forever
After twenty years, Odysseus finally returns to Ithaca, but instead of receiving the homecoming he had hoped for finds himself caught in an intense battle of wills with his faithful and long-suffering wife Penelope. When Penelope recognizes him under the guise of a beggar, she becomes furious with him for not trusting her enough to include her in his plans for ridding the palace of the Suitors. As a result, she plays her own game of fictions to make him suffer for this lack of faith, inspiring jealousy, self-doubt, and misgivings in her husband, the legendary Homeric hero. In this captivating retelling of the Odyssey, Penelope rises as a major force with whom to be reckoned. Shifting between first-person reflections, Ithaca Forever reveals the deeply personal and powerful perspectives of both wife and husband as they struggle for respect and supremacy within a marriage that has been on hold for twenty years. Translated by PEN award-winner Douglas Grant Heise, Luigi Malerba's novel gives us a remarkable version of this greatest work of western literature: Odysseus as a man full of doubts and Penelope as a woman of great depth and strength.

Bounce
A God with a destiny and power to save us all. Shame he can't remember that.Bounce is complicated and simple at the same time. As the leader of The Grid and the former General of the legions of Hell, he simply wants to run his nightclub, have a nap and eat a pizza while it's hot. As long as it doesn't come with pineapple.But there is more to the man than anyone knows. And this is his story. A fate. A love. A loss. A history he doesn't know nor is allowed to. A destiny key to mankind's existence without a clue how. Greek gods, Heaven and Hell tossed into the mix. Is there a word more complicated than complicated? This is the story of Bounce and it's so much more than that.
